Has anyone used insuremytrip.com for insurance instead of the DCL insurance? The rate is half of the DCL insurance and the coverage seems very similar?

 

[So_Confused]

Yes, you must have ten posts to send a private message, so hears a couple of questions...
answer in separate posts..

You said this is your second Disney cruise, what ship did you sail on for your first and where did you go?

What was your favorite shipboard thing you did on that cruise and do you plan to do it again?

What was your favorite dining room?

That should get you started!

Hi, thanks for the tip.. Great way to get my ten posts!
First Disney cruise was last November, same week. We did the 4 day Dream.. We did Bahamas and loved the Blue Lagoon Dolphin encounter. Loved Castaway cay! What a beautiful place!

We loved the Dream! But, you should also look at sailing on either the Magic or Wonder one time as well! The feel is different....not better not worse, just different. They are smaller ships so there is a bit more intimate feel on board!

We stopped using DCL insurance after the first trip and have either used InsureMyTrip or none at all - depending on what is going on in our world. I would highly recommend InsureMyTrip. We actually had to cash in on a claim (lost luggage..had to buy things, etc) when we cruised the med 2 summers ago and it was as easy as can be.

Hello! This will be our first cruise and we are super pumped! May I ask a couple questions from your experts out there? Our daughter is 8, should we register her for teh Kids stuff before we board or when we get there?

 

[UfFamily]

We will be on the Fantasy, any reccommendations on your favorite shipboard must-do?

 

[UfFamily]

Which dining spots onboard do you reccommend and why?

Hey Christie! I think this is all of our first time on the fantasy--did you check out the trip reports? Thats a fine time sucker. There are some Eastern sailings tho not with the same itinerary as us.

Good job getting your post count up!

you should register her online as much as you can... since you guys are late to the port you can register her finally in the kids club instead of at the port. This registration is just for her wristband --she won't need to register for any particular events/activites onboard.

After much consideration I decided to book Remy last night. We love Palo and have that booked but didn't think Remy was our "cup of tea" but the reviews have been so amazing that I didn't want to miss it given that we have the chance to book 120 days out. We peeked in when we were on the Dream and it looked amazing but i thought it was a bit too fancy schmancy for a vacation dinner, but now with a second chance - why not? !!!!

Insuremytrip.com gives several insurance company choices.
What did you use?

We ate at Remy's on the Dream and LOVED it! We are hoping to get a booking in 10 days when our date comes up!!!! This sailing will make 10 for us and we will be platinum too!!!

We are hoping to eat at Remy's for the first time as well - were there many spots still available? I'm starting to worry there will not be any left for us when the time comes... we are using DCL to get to the port as well (only two of us so all the other options are much more $$) so finding a spot when we board will not be likely.

We generally buy TravelEx

There were still tons of spots open when I booked last night. I picked the day I wanted and there were seatings all night (every 10 or 15 minutes) through the whole night. It actually looked like no one had booked yet.

I can't book until 21 July I'm still gold on this one!!
